Motorola and T-Mobile are finally catching up with the rest of
the pack of Moto X updates. We’re now seeing reports that the 2013 Moto X is
currently testing the Android
4.4.4 KitKat update.
If everything goes according to plan, we could see a mass update rolled out in
the next couple of weeks.
T-Mobile Moto X
Android KitKat 4.4.4 update soak test begins
With this being a soak
test, you should not expect this to be a widespread update until
T-Mobile and Motorola finds out if the update is free from bugs and glitches.
We generally do not see T-Mobile updates lagging behind like this. The 2013
Moto X has already been updated to Android
4.4.4 KitKat on AT&T,
Verizon and Sprint. We usually see Verizon as the carrier that lags behind, but
this is not the case this time around. We’re reading that it is probably due to
the fact that T-Mobile doesn’t sell the device in their stores. To get your
hands on this device that’s currently being updated, you’d have had to purchase
the unlocked T-Mobile variant directly from the Motorola website.
Reports have us believe that this
soak test started on Monday and updates the device from 4.4.3 to 4.4.4. So this
update will only contain a few bug fixes along with the major Heartbleed
security patch. Since this device isn’t sold by T-Mobile, the update isn’t
being pushed by the carrier themselves. Instead, it is being pushed out by
Motorola. We could see this soak test finishing up by the end of next week
maybe, and then the big roll-out can start.
